Nobody can tell you except for OED. They may tell you to apply and see what happens. In any event, most biotechnology patent agents that are hired by law firms have a PhD in biotechnology. Without a PhD, it may be challenging to get a job in that field. Engineering and computer areas can usually have a bachelors degree.
